because if you initialise to zero, if the max hourglass sum is negative then it will not overwrite the zero value. best to either initialise it with the value of the first hourglass (slightly more elegent in my opinion) or a large negative value. 63 is significant because it is not possible to get a sum less than that under the constraints given.
hello sir!
i want to know that if we want to do this programming in c so what programe is used from the starting because my basic in c and c++ is not clear and also i m not familiar with its operation so kindly send me a complete programe based on it in C. thanku

why do we need to set max to -63 or to any such value ?
